Shoprider scooter what it does is that runs for about 1hr. or 11/2 and make a sudden stop and started beeping and it doesn't move. I turn off the key and wait for about 1 min. and turn on the key and start it working again but after that the battery power run up quickly for example one bar less from fully charge it works for about 10 min. and lost the battery power completely. My batteries are 3 months old and are 55 miles. and I took my batteries to check and they are good. My charger works well. So what else can it be.

    it can be the throttle so the trick is to move it in the upwards or downwards direction to see whether it prevents this, if the controller sees a big jump in resistance it will stop

Shoprider Mobility Scooter. My chair is a shoprider. I ran into 12 pack of soda and the scooter wrench is blinking and the lights across the top are blinking.

You can try pressing the reset button, or disconnect the battery for 10 minutes.

Shoprider Echo 3 wheel mobility scooter-will not move. When key is turned on, there is just a continuous beeping. Battery is completely charged

Have the battery load tested because the symptoms are for a dead low battery. Just because it shows charged doesn't mean it is any good.

I have a shoprider echo when I turn it on the power meter works. The horn works. But there is a beep every 3 seconds. Please help

Your Throttle maybe out of neutral when you start the scooter.
Make sure your parking brake lever is on so the scooter is hard to move. If it is easy then it is not on and won't drive. Make sure there are not any cables that are disconnected to the motor and brake. Scooter Doctor App

How to stop a continuing beep on my Cordoba scooter when I turn the key on? The scooter don't move at all.

Hi Mag,
I have this steps that might help you with beeping sound on your Scooter. Hope it helps.

UNIT LIGHTS UP/HORN WORKS BUT UNIT WILL NOT MOVE
Possible Cause:
  • This often occurs when the scooter is in free wheel mode and is not in drive mode. Re-Engage the free wheel lever which is located down near the rear wheels (normally a yellow or red lever).
  • If you hear a beeping noise, the beeping you hear is a fault beep indicating the scooter main control box has detected a problem. Contact your dealer who can diagnose the beep code.
  • Check batteries with load tester - If either battery drops more than 1 volt under a load, the battery(s) are bad. Replace "both" batteries.

I also find these additional steps on how to know beep alarm indicators:

This main control box has a self-diagnostics feature & cannot be tested with a volt meter. When a
problem is present the main control box will diagnose the fault, prohibit the scooter from being driven
and sound an alert beep. Each alert beep indicates a different issue which helps to determining the
problem by narrowing the fault into one of a few main areas of the scooter. Reference this information
below for the alert beep indications.

Very Rapid beep- Batteries are low. Charge & test batteries.
Medium Fast beep- Motor/brake wiring fault. Free wheel lever disengaged.
Solid beep- The charger is plugged into the scooter (some models may vary).
Very Slow beep- The throttle pot was not at center when you turned the unit on. Throttle pot off
center or wiring (yellow & orange wires) fault.
